The incident with Gaza convoy was the culmination of Israeli-Turkish
tensions, an Armenian expert said.
"I don't think that this incident can provoke hostilities between
Israel and Turkey. But its consequences will be felt for a long time,"
Ruben Melkonyan told journalists on June 1.
"Turkey aimed to strengthen positions in the Middle East and to gain
dividends from the Arab world and Iran. The recent Islamic trends in
Turkey are a part of Neo-Ottoman ideology, represented by Foreign
Minister Ahmet Davutoglu," he said, adding that the incident will
be a serious factor for Islamic solidarity, thus making Armenia face
new challenges.
"If the AKP wins the forthcoming parliamentary election, the influence
of Islamism will inevitably grow," Melkonyan said.
He also added that the Jewish community in Turkey is now in danger.
